Infamous Carnivorous Leader Visits Land of Sacred Cows

The President and First Lady are on a state visit to India this week, where they were greeted like rock stars at a massive rally.  But for the media there must be something negative to say about it, right?  There must be some sort of #Resistance angle to please the soft skulls. We can't let him victoriously visit another country without nitpicking every single little thing that happens, or could happen. So Fear not America. The "Most Trusted Name In News' is on the case! The Queen of Smirk, Kaitlan Collins, and her cohorts Kevin Liptak, and Vivian Salama of CNN dug deep for the story:

What's a beef-lover to do in India? The President, whose diet is often a rotation of steaks, burgers and meatloaf, faces a potential shock as he prepares to travel to three Indian cities this week. His trip includes stops in Gujarat state, Agra and Delhi, where Hindus are the majority and cows are revered as sacred. 

A person close to the President who has dined with him on several occasions said Trump has salad with a meal every now and then -- but other than that, "I have never seen him eat a vegetable...." 

So DJT faces a "potential shock." Not an actual shock, but a potential one. Hey, it could happen. It only took three reporters to bring you the important information that Trump likes to eat beef and most Indians don't.  News Flash Kaitlan: Hindus and Muslims eat meat Sweetheart. Obama loved wagyu beef and hamburgers and other delicious meat products, when he wasn't eating dogs. I didn't know or care what he ate when he visited India, and neither did CNN or anybody else.

It makes sense that CNN considers this a story, since most of their audience is made up of late-night comedians. They went nuts over Trump getting more ice cream than his guests, so I'm sure they'll have fun with this too. Potential shock brings potential humor. Hey, it could happen.  Trump also mispronounced a bunch of Indian names, in case you needed to know that. So, I dunno. Impeach him again, I guess?

So Few Words Can Be So Telling

In a sea of Cajun Cuisine and World Class restaurants of New Orleans sits a little eatery that has become one of my favorite off the beaten path places.  Decorated in blue and white of the Greek Isles with a delightful Paris style sidewalk cafe out front for when weather permits.  Run by an amazing little man who, like myself, has never completely lost all his accent, and when I visit makes a point to come to my table and respectfully kiss my hand in the camaraderie of the old country. And always the flirt tells me "Oh, if I was only 30 years younger."

I had dinner with an old acquaintance there yesterday.  While we dined, a couple came in and were seated just behind and slightly to the side of my dinner partner. They had Mardi Gras tourist written all over them.  From what little I overheard of their conversation while we ate, they sounded somewhat like I hear when I have occasion to speak to someone at NPR, New Englander sounding.  The woman's mannerism didn't suggest to me at all any Class and Distinction, more like Liberal Elitist Snobbery. You know the type. The ones who do things like order water with three ice cubes and shit like that?  

During our after dinner coffee we spent a pleasant few minutes with the owner at our table and he then turned to the tourist and greeted them for some small talk.  As we prepared to leave, I heard the woman tourist asked the owner if he was a Greek?  He said as he slowly picked up the dinner bill from their table, "I'm an American." And as he folded their bill and stuck it into his shirt pocket, he added, "A Proud American".  He then thanked them and said he hoped to see them again and turned and walked away.  I watched the woman's reaction to his words.......it confirmed my intial impression of her.

It was as if he had plunged a dagger into her chest. Every bit of expression disappeared from her face, not in shock of his comping what was not an inexpensive meal, but that he was so adamant about being a 'Proud American' in this day and age. She silently mouthed "proud?" to her partner who's back was to me but looked as if he slightly nodded in approval of her disgust. 

I so wanted to say something to them both. I have an enormus backlog of cuss words built up. But my Better Angels had one hand over my mouth, and another was tugging at my arm in the direction of the exit.  But believe me, My Heart Was Singing.......

The Leftist Twitter Mob and MSNBC are not The Real America

The Democrats are on the precipice of nominating an avowed, unapologetic socialist. It scares the hell out of some Democrats and it should scare the hell out of the remainder of America, especially those living in the suburbs. The support for socialism is not as great as one would think. Leaving aside the Leftist Twitter mob and MSNBC, the American electorate is not exactly enamored with socialism as they would want you to believe.

It would be a horrendous case for the GOP to lose suburban voters to a party led by a socialist like Bernie Sanders and partly supported by the largesse of people like George Soros and Tom Steyer. In reality, suburban voters are tired and leery of both parties. The question then becomes, given the reality there are two choices, do they vote for the socialist?  Do they allow their communities to become dumping grounds for illegal immigrants? In Virginia, against the backdrop of the 2019 election results, we can see in microcosm what Democrats have in store.

Did all those suburban voters who turned Virginia blue really bargain for a trampling of their Second Amendment rights? Did they really want violent criminals released from their prisons? Did they really want the wonders of being transgender taught in their nice suburban schools? Perhaps the suburban voters were wary of Trump’s personality, but did they really bargain for this?

The GOP must first scare the living daylights out of suburban voters when it comes to the Democrats, especially if it is Bloomberg or Sanders, although they all have socialist visions dancing in their heads. It starts with a “We the People” argument, not a “government does all” argument. A return of power to the people, not the Courts, would be a great first step.

What do suburban voters want? If you talk to them, from various polls, they want what most everyone wants- safe streets devoid of crime is one thing. Does it make sense, then, for a city to harbor criminals? Another concern is health care. If the GOP could ever create a coherent message in this area, the Democrats would be DOA. But, they haven’t.  Imagine the accomplishments Trump would have under his belt if fellow Republicans assisted instead of becoming commentators at The Bulwark.

If Democrats themselves do not want a socialist, why would suburban voters? Why would they even even support socialism-lite and woke political correctness in the form of Buttigieg or Bloomberg? The country, including suburban voters, needs to be saved from the Democrat Party who will think not one iota about running over Constitutional rights to remake this country in their image. They will trot out the “Scandinavian model” and look to places like Denmark, but if Virginia is any indication, their lust for power will be undeterred.

Suburbia needs to get out of bed, smell the coffee and do the right thing. Their ignorance is no excuse to destroy the Republic.

Just For You, Diogenes' Most Excellent Democrat Debate Summary

Maison de Diogène 11:00 PM

I knew it was going to be serious, Bernie combed his hair.

But let me first say, I spent 3 hours trying to get a simple warranty return done on my phone, and after that, I just wanted to see blood. So my mood may color my analysis a tiny bit. I also missed a short segment about midway in the debate to go outside for some air after feeling like I was about to stab myself in the thigh with my pen.

Really, I do wish the dems would stop pretending that we don't know they're all talkin' crazy! It's a widely-documented phenomenon that most of us have personally observed!

Some pundits tomorrow may say that it was unsporting for Lizzy Warren to kick off this debate by ripping Mike Bloomberg’s arm off and using it to punch him in the face, but I respectfully disagree. Like a ninja dancing across the tops of the bamboo forest all crouching tiger-like, she personally ripping Bloomberg's face off his skull like an angry bear, then fed Mini Mike into a wood chipper feet first.  Lizzy pandered a lot, we need more Mexcans, and Black people are wonderful. She could have been a lot less shrill, smiled more and wore something else besides THAT FREAKIN' PURPLE JACKET! At least she wasn't dancing. 

Mayor Mini Mike: Move over bitches, I'm the bestest.  Two minutes in, Bloomberg's mouth is saying words but his eyes scream "MAYDAY".  An hour in, after his fellow debaters barrages of left jabs, MSNBC cut to commercial so nobody could see Bloomberg’s cut man rushing out with a bucket and an ice pack.  I'm just assuming everyone in the Bloomberg campaign is cashing those checks and that's literally it. Because this performance is exactly as expected.  He did manage to get one of the best lines of the night in on Bernie, "Best known socialist in the country is a millionaire who owns three homes". 

Then there's Joe Biden: God help me, I'm starting to feel a little sorry for the bastard.  Joe says I've done everything, with everybody, and I was Obama's VP, have you forgotten?  Just how quickly would you be blind, stinking drunk if you only drank when Biden mentioned Obama?  Joe seems to avoid completing sentences like there's a land mine waiting at the end of them.....now Joe’s gettin’ all pissy about trying to get a word in edgewise........ Quit YELLING AT ME Joe........... Now Joe is ranting incoherently about Chinese coal.....

Senator Amy Kolbe..uh...the Lady from Minnesota: Amy is opposed to Mexican drug cartels. That's Edgy! There's something about Amy Klobu... that just pisses me off.  Maybe it's that she reminds me so much of one of the Sisters in my Catholic Girls School.  She was a Bitch......Someone should tell Amy not to tell jokes, humor isn't her thing. She says we need more mexcans and she has a vagina so she gets things done....... Uh Oh, I left the room and now Senator Amy looks like she wants to take Mayor Pete over her knee. Don't make her grab a switch, young man.......Pete just compared Amy to Walter Mondale. OH, IT ON NOW!!  Amy strikes back. "Get your fact straight, PocketProtector!" She's about to stab him in the neck with that pen. Her mouth is smiling, her eyes speak murder....... I think maybe Amy's gonna jump him in the alley after this and shiv him with her comb fork. A woman's righteous fire is terrifying to the weak.

Mayor Pete: Thought it was kinda cute of him to not shave for a week to get that 5 o'clock shadow to make him look older. Pete kindly reminded both Mayor Mini Mike and Senator Bernie that at least he was a real democrat. Pete pointed out to Bernie that he and his brown shirt Bernie Bros. are extremely polarizing.......Bernie inturn totally denied his supporters are assholes. After listening to the curmudgeon Bernie,  Pete sounded like he is about 15.  Pete tells us we need more mexcans.......It is thoroughly hilarious watching Buttigieg go after US Senators for not doing enough, then puff up the importance of small-time mayors. Pete's Mom must be proud. I bet she still beams about that essay contest he won and that the ribbon's still on the fridge.

Bernie: Off with their heads!! Bernie gets red in the face every time he speaks. I mean yells.   Bernie flushed as he screamed at that meddling kid, Pete, from down the street. Bernie denies being a commie, then proceeds to lay out his authoritarian revolution. Bernie tells us if we don't deal with climate change, Nevada will become mostly a desert!.....Either I'm stoned or Bernie just answered a question about what he would say to millions of the proletariat who are about to lose their jobs as he destroys whole industries in the name of climate change, and his answer had a subtext of "They should be happy with being sacrifices for the future!" But Bernie will never become president because he's f**king crazy, and WHO WANTS TO BE YELLED AT FOR FOUR YEARS.

In the final analysis, what this debate did was again illustrate just how appallingly bankrupt and philosophically broken the democrat party really is.
